Depending on where you are pulling him to, you may want to use a pet pull on him since he will snag you with unresistable root if you are too close. This is mostly an issue if you are pulling him just around the corner where you have to peek around the corner to snag him.
Summon up your lowest pet, send him in, let him eat it, and then he'll come to you where you can tank him/root rot him. You will avoid the root on pull, which can be deadly, and only get rooted when he's in your camp.
